Cellermanship is a great, if succinct, book. It gives you virtually all information you would need to serve cask ale. As a CAMRA publication, it's focussed entirely on serving cask ale in a pub. This means that homebrewers or craft brewers may find that it's not the most complete source of information for their needs. As a guide, though, this is probably something every bar should have a copy of for reference.
